In this Season 4 finale of The Robot Podcast, we hear some of the previously unheard parts of our interviews with the incredible guests who’ve appeared across the series.

Fran Scott looks back at our exploration of how we’re building a future with intelligent robots at the core – for a better tomorrow.

Highlights include: Dr Sami Atiya, President of Robotics & Discrete Automation at ABB who’ll be talking about his hopes for the future of AI.  President and CEO of The Texas Medical Centre Bill McKeon who gives us his insights into how robotics and AI will make a difference when it comes to our healthcare.  There’s a virtual audio-tour of a mega-factory of the future with Marc Segura, President of ABB’s Robotics Division.  And Kakani Katija, a Bio Engineer at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute who reveals how remote robotics can help in capturing images in the deep ocean so we can study the ecosystem and sea life behaviour in order to monitor and preserve it.

How Can Robots Make You Feel Better?

Imagine the factory of the future where robots can quickly adapt and change in order to manufacture different items, or handle a multitude of tasks, and all at the press of a button.  A world where such capabilities will transform industries.  But these aren’t just the dreams of tomorrow because they’re already here today.

Episode two of this series takes you on a behind-the-scenes ‘audio journey’ through ABB’s state of-the-art robotics mega factory to reveal the exciting work going on there.  

Science host Fran Scott explores the power of robots and AI in industry and joining her are Marc Segura, President of ABB’s Robotics Division and Futurist and keynote speaker Jim Carroll who’ll be predicting where we could go from here.

Factories of the Future

Recently, we’ve seen major technological developments in machine learning, artificial intelligence, motion control, as well as low and no-code programming. 50 years ago all of this would have been seen as science fiction, but now is the time for exciting advanced technology to thrive and improve our lives.

In our new series, Fran Scott is back to explore the power of robots and AI, and how it’s being used to transform industries.

In this first episode we hear from ABB’s President of Robotics and Discrete Automation Dr Sami Atiya and Reader in Artificial Intelligence at King’s College London, Dr Kate Devlin.
